Intel H series processors bring gaming to life even in the thinnest laptops
Intel’s 11th Gen H Series processors bring desktop calibre performance to laptops. Push the boundaries of your gaming, even on the thinnest machines. Intel calls it, “Desktop power for any desk” and they don’t coin that tagline for nothing. For years, desktops have been the benchmark when it comes to PC gaming performance; however, Intel-powered laptops have evolved to deliver comparable performance of bulky desktop, and play high resolution, maximum frame rate games anytime and anywhere. The H45 processor, the latest in the H Series, lets you get exactly that.

The advantages of the Intel H45 processor lie in its advanced architecture, with the 10 nm SuperFin manufacturing process, its Willow Cove design, and new Intel Iris Xe graphics. You get 8 core CPUs, higher clock speeds, and lower power consumption. Using Intel’s Turbo Boost Technology, the H45 processor ensures faster processing right when you need it the most.
Gone are the days when power and performance require a big and bulky desktop, or a heavy, clunky laptop. Truly, the H45 processor is designed with the most demanding PC gamers in mind, so gamers like you get nothing but great performance for your toughest gaming adventures.
Gaming brings us all together
Gaming is becoming one of the best ways for you to connect with people who have similar interests from across the globe. Outside of gameplay many gamers connect through social media platforms like Twitch and YouTube by streaming their gameplays. During the first quarter of this year alone, there were a total of 8.8 billion hours of gaming streamed online. Some of the gameplay is from eSports professionals, allowing you to learn new tricks, while others come from people just like you who want to share a great gaming experience they had, or show how great gaming is because of the new machines and PC components they added to their system.
Whether you’re gaming for fun or streaming your gameplay for your avid followers to watch, you need the most reliable gaming laptop that plays as hard as you do. With a new array of game releases for PC this year, like Psychonauts 2, Dying Light, Fifa 22, and many others, take the unparalleled gaming performance offered by Intel’s new H45 processors, or any of Intel’s new processors anywhere you want. Experience the excitement and speed of the most demanding game titles even on ultra-thin laptops.

There are so many features, half of which, I don’t even understand! For my basic understanding two things stand out for me. The first is that you get a lot of power in a thin machine. The second is Intel’s Turbo Boost Technology and when it comes to speed the faster the better. Definitely wouldn’t have to worry about lag time with the H45 processor.
I’ve played less frequently in this last year as my current system has been glitching out on me, & I’ve been experiencing a shortage of income due to Covid. When I did game, it was more frequently in the night. I absolutely connect with other gamers online. I wouldn’t have my sanity if I didn’t. My favourite topic is just when we get carried away with conversation, keeping each other laughing, hours on end 🙂
1. Compared to previous years, I’ve probably gamed a bit less as work is busier
2. I game more in the in the mornings when I have days off

Choosing my favourite feature in the new, Intel H45 processor is an absolute hard decision. All the features included are what makes this the perfect gaming laptop. With 8 core CPUs, higher clock speeds, lower power consumption & a sleek design these features make this a reliable gadget for me to stream/game on-the-go as needed, to match my busy lifestyle.

3. I have, although not through games, but on social media through art posts since I’m an artist as well. We tend to like talking about topics pertaining to the games we love like Pokemon and Yugioh.
I play games more frequently over the last year in comparison to previous years. I have especially been playing more games at night. I often connect with other gamers through chat and enjoy talking about the local news since most of us live in different parts of the world.
I appreciate the lower power consumption, I tend to like moving my laptop around as I hate sitting in one place for an extended period of time. Plus playing games in bed is always fun, so I don’t have to keep it plugged in.
My favourite feature is the high processing speeds because I can loan multiple applications quickly & games all at once without slowing anything down.
My computer is so old I can’t join in games. Looking for some new fun in gaming with starting with a new computer!
